Axis Communications FAQs
Can Axis work with our existing VMS?
Yes—Axis is built around open standards. We validate features (events, analytics, PTZ presets) in design and document any platform-specific behavior in your runbooks.
Do we need new cabling or PoE switches?
Many sites reuse existing cabling and PoE. We survey distances, power budgets, and environmental ratings and upgrade selectively where performance or compliance requires it.
Can we integrate intercoms and door control?
Yes—Axis video intercoms and door hardware integrate with role-based access control and your identity provider for auditable changes and least-privilege admin roles.
How do you plan storage and retention?
We size storage to your motion profile and retention targets, tune frame rates/bitrates, and use edge analytics to reduce unnecessary recording while preserving evidence quality.
What happens during an internet or WAN outage?
Recording and access continue per your configuration; events buffer where supported. When connectivity returns, health status and synchronization resume. We include incident procedures in your runbooks.
